Encoder crashing mid stream / pc becoming sluggish the longer i'm live

So as expected the encoder held with no issue. No errors no crashes no resets. The one thing i will say is that this driver seems a bit weaker for dead by daylight in particular then more recent drivers so i might have to go out and experiment with a more recent driver that doesn't have the same issues as current drivers do. All in all I'm happy we got it resolved and even tho my fps is not locked at 120 the whole time i can still stream the game and it wont randomly crash so that's a win in my book! Log for proof its not happening anymorehttps://obsproject.com/logs/zEF1gT5gDRyjDt3B

SOLVED TLDR:
1. Reinstall an older driver (in my case https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/details/237785/) [this actually solved the issue completely]
2. Update your obs plugins / Nvidia video and audio sdk's
3. Removed unused scenes and sources, remove game captures in a scene so you only have 1
4. clean install your driver using DDU.

Huge shout out to @rockbottom for helping me solve this. I legit thought i was cooked for a while!
 
Sweet! Nice & stable.

120HZ should eliminate the Rendering Lag. I would work on streamlining that Scene Collection, lots of wasted resources there.

Connection stalls close to 5%, might need to bag the multi-out until you get it figured out/cleaned up.

Some audio lag is happening during your encodes. It could be a routing issue, the Source or your CPU is overloaded.

I think this is the correct Source. Device Timing is being used & the device is lagging.....

20:06:34.475: [win-wasapi: 'soundboard audio wave'] update settings:
20:06:34.475: device id: {0.0.0.00000000}.{51b2cbad-75b0-4f07-bb52-201ea7238d61}
20:06:34.475: use device timing: 1

20:07:27.361: Max audio buffering reached!
20:07:27.362: adding 917 milliseconds of audio buffering, total audio buffering is now 960 milliseconds (source: browser audio wave)

3:05:41.699: Source browser audio wave audio is lagging (over by 10692961.70 ms) at max audio buffering. Restarting source audio.

Captions are also lagging at several points, not sure what affect that is having as I have never used them.
